Support Tampa Bay’s entrepreneurs in times of crisis! In 2020, many startups faced the challenges brought on by the COVID-19 pandemic, and our Rising Tide Relief Fund micro-loan program provided a lifeline to some of the most promising companies in need. Your one-time contribution can support numerous startups for years to come as these loans are repaid and replenish the fund.
